Yes, there are cases of ambiguous genitalia. And for them, corrective surgery to bring their phenotype into agreement with their genotype is wonderful. Unfortunately, many are scarred by the junior high locker room. This is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT situation from a conscious choice to change genders.

Everyday babies are born with genitals of both sexes.

Hermaphroditism is rare but also occurs. Same correction as above

Everyday babies are born with genitals that do not match their genes.

That would be something that I am not familiar with. There are cases of testicular feminization syndrome, but that's not really the same thing


Everyday children are born with genes that do not define “normal” sexual orientation- ie. they don’t have the standard two genes, X and Y combination,

Those anomalies, such as Kleinfelter"s and Turner's syndrome, do not define "sexual orientation". They are genetic "mutations" that are usually fatal during the first trimester, but occasionally will escape nature's failsafe system and be born. Again, it has nothing to do with gender reassignment.
I completely disagree with you, and there is NO clear definition of "sexual orientation".

But, let's put that aside, what happened to "freedom". Why is it is worth fighting for the right to choose if only those things a particular person agrees with are covered.

So what if someone chooses to change the physical sex? Where do people get the right to pile hate and scorn onto someone because of their choice?

I could say that someones free choice of which person they want to have as president has a lot more impact on my life than what sex a person decides they identify as. And yet, if I come on here and describe that choice of presidents as evil or sick or discussing, I can be banned, but there is NOTHING wrong with attacking a person for their sexual choice.

Disgusting hypocrisy.

I think I need a break for this form.
